One of the hottest building products around is
Soy Protein
Extract,
which is high in anti-cancer isoflavones such as
geinstein. Many studies have shown that soy can help
prevent various forms of cancer, including breast and
prostate cancer by inhibiting cell proliferation.
Soy also contains phytoestrogens that can lessen the
symptoms of menopause without increasing the risk of
cancer. What few people know is that soy also boosts
thyroid hormone levels, which helps reduce weight by
enhancing energy production.

One mechanism by which soy reduces blood fats is by boosting
thyroid hormone levels. Studies show that thyroid hormone literally
burns up LDL cholesterol globules in the blood!

Because of the numerous documented health benefits from soy intake, The Life Extension Foundation suggests that anyone seeking to lose weight safely through dieting take 6-to-30 grams a day of soy protein concentrate. Soy protein not only boosts thyroid hormone to burn sugar calories, but also contains an amino acid complex that helps spare the body’s protein stores, which are often broken down in response to dieting. The phyto-estrogens and essential fatty acids in soy further help to promote weight loss.
